Weltcup-Loipe Davos Nordic
Davos, Bünda–Davos, Bünda
Cross-country skiing on the FIS racing trails in the Flüela Valley, where Dario Cologna and his fellow skiers also compete for World Cup points. Highlight of the racing trail: the famous «Cologna-Stutz» named after Switzerland’s most successful cross-country skier of all time.
The world's elite cross-country skiers stand on the starting line of the Davos Nordic every year. The starting point of the World Cup cross-country ski trail is the Bünda area in Davos Dorf. The trail leads from here along the forest to Obersand where it crosses the Flüela river to the other side of the valley.
It passes the Adventure Park Färich (rope-climbing & bike park in summer), then rises up the section that includes the famous «Cologna-Stutz» named after Switzerland’s most successful cross-country skier of all time and elective native of Davos. With a length of 236 metres, the steepest climb on the route is a real challenge for many athletes.
The trail reaches its highest point at the small hamlet of Waldji, where it then turns and runs parallel to the ascent for several hundred metres, before bending to the left, once again crossing the Flüela river. From here, it’s a sprint along the river for around 1.5 km as far as Obersand, with the final kilometre also being gently downhill and leading back to the starting point of the lap.
